📍 CONES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE YARN PRICE.
Unlike other shops where cone costs are often built into the yarn price—regardless of the format—our pricing is transparent. You pay only for the yarn itself. If you’d like your order wound on a cone, it can be purchased separately. This small additional charge also helps cover the shipping cost associated with different packaging sizes and the self-cost of the cone. No hidden fees, no inflated markups—just honest, straightforward pricing.

✨ Texture & Feel:
This yarn has a distinct, rustic texture that feels cool to the touch. It softens beautifully with every wash and wear, creating a lovely drape. Its natural luster and breathability make it the ultimate choice for comfortable, lightweight garments.

🧶 Recommended Use:
As this is an extra-fine thread, we do not recommend using it in one or even two threads for knitting. For best results, we recommend holding multiple threads together to achieve a more substantial weight. This yarn is a fantastic choice for lightweight knitwear and accessories, especially for warmer weather. It's ideal for summer tops, shawls, and cardigans.

🧶 Blending Recommendations:
Linen’s cool hand and rustic texture make it a wonderful companion for other yarns.
• Silk, Cotton, or Tencel: Blend for a smoother, softer finish while retaining breathability.
• Wool or Alpaca: Combine for added warmth and elasticity, creating a versatile all-season fabric.
• Cashmere: Mix for an incredibly luxurious, ultra-soft fabric that maintains a cool feel.

🧶 Recommendations for Weaving:
Linen is a classic weaving fiber known for its strength and durability. This yarn can be used for both warp and weft, making it perfect for creating beautiful and long-lasting projects like towels, placemats, scarves, and lightweight apparel.

🪡 Recommended Needles & Hooks:
• Knitting Needles (3-4 threads): 2.25–3.5 mm (US 1–4)
• Crochet Hooks (3-4 threads): 3.5–4.5 mm (E-4 to 7)

📍 Care Instructions:

📍 Please note:
Most yarn prepared on cones for machine knitting is lightly waxed to ensure smooth running. Once knit, it should be washed to reveal its true softness. This yarn is perfect for both hand and machine knitting, highly recommended for creating premium-quality knitwear.

📸 Please Note:
• The amount of yarn shown on cones in the photos may not reflect the actual quantity you’ll receive. Yarn is custom-wound per your order.
• Colors are photographed in natural lighting but may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings. I recommend zooming in on each photo to fully appreciate the beauty and texture of the yarn.
• ±1–2g variation per 100g may occur due to the winding process.
• Each ball/cone is wound with care and packed securely to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition.
